Mother nature sure is testing out the durability of groumd blinds the past couple days. I hape they make it through this wind but I dont have very high expectations.

I took mine down. I had one destroyed by wind a few years ago. It still had one anchor holding it in place but imagine it being raised up and slammed back down repeatedly. Wasn't worth fixing it either as the cost for new rods exceeded just buying a new one.

In my location, I'm good up until a 30 to 35 mph wind. Anything more than that and I'll take it down.

I need to check mine tonight. I couldn't get out to take it down yesterday. I have a feeling it's a tumbleweed at this point.

It was a severe dust storm in central ND. I have never seen anything like it. Very limited visibility. I have to wash my house for cripes sake.

Preliminary report from the road it looks like one is unscathed, ome the top has folded in and ome looks worse for wear. Going in tonight to fix what I can. Will update with findings. So far it looks as though I may have lucked out big time.
